Gayle in for World T20

West Indies called up Chris Gayle and Dwayne Bravo as well as suspended off-spinner Sunil Narine for the 2016 World Twenty20 tournament on Friday.

Darren Sammy will lead the 15-man squad to the event which starts in India on March 8.

The squad includes 11 of the team which won the 2012 title in Sri Lanka and six players who are without central contracts.

Narine played a crucial role in that final victory over the Sri Lankans in 2012, taking three wickets for just nine runs.

But the 27-year-old was suspended in November for a suspect bowling action and is currently sidelined from the game as he undergoes remedial work.

In the Super 10 stage, they will play alongside England, South Africa, Sri Lanka, and one of the qualifiers.
